It’s 7/11 and you get a free slurpee at 7-11, at least in the US. Just a heads up, folks. No idea what size they mean, but I assume a small. ---

Greetings from “The Slurpee Capital of the World”. I don’t know if this is going on here, so I guess I’ll have to check it out. If it is, there would probably be a big sign in their window. I’ll take a look, and report back later. ---

Well, I’m back from two 7-11’s(yes, I went to two), and neither had large signs. However, they had plenty of cups available and it was no problem getting them. Good thing they didn’t call it 9-11. Heh. ---

Yep same here – we went for a Sunday drive and hit eight 7-11’s. Everytime we saw one, we stopped. It’s amazing how many of those bloody places exist. ---

In Winnipeg, Im jealous. We don’t have any Sev’s anymore, I had to make do with a Froster from Mac’s. This thread inspired me to go and buy Frosters for my work gang last night. Introduced one woman who has lived in Canada for 7 years to her first Froster. But it isn’t a Slurpee. I’m looking forward to getting into the Peg next month and having a real one. (This brings back memories of 10 years ago living in Osborne village, people were buying giant alien slurpee containers and making bongs out of them. I used mine for cold slushie beverages though.) ---
